"Block private networks" would only block inbound connections on WAN. It would not block outbound connections. In a default config with a DHCP WAN, you can surf by just plugging in. There is nothing special you need to do -- so long as your WAN and LAN are on different subnets. If you're using a static IP on WAN, you should use the wizard to set it, or ensure that you added and selected a gateway via the WAN interface config. If you try to manually set a WAN IP and Gateway and didn't do it properly, it could end up either without a default route or it could end up with a default route but not properly doing outbound NAT. Either way, "block private networks" would not impact outgoing traffic so it's not likely related to your issue.
